Tu(n)esday

This weeks song comes from a band that is actually a side project of another great band. The side project is known as FM Static and the other band is Thousand Foot Krutch. Both are great christian bands with lots of hits between the two of them. Fm Statics new cd, that I believe its currently not released yet because I know I got it before it came out, is very good. Its the kind of cd to blare loud and rock out to yet a great cd to kick back and chill with. This weeks song is a song letting go of being complacent in your walk with Christ and telling Him to take you jsut the way you are. The song is titled "Take Me As I Am". Lyrics with video below (not offical music video).

WOW! What a great weekend

First off, Friday afternoon I came home to a new van sitting in our driveway. Turns out it was Kristie who went and looked at it and they let her drive it home. After driving it Friday and some deliberation, we traded in the Trailblazer and the Accord for this van. Thats right my primary car is now a minivan. It is a 2009 Nissan Quest, and a nice one at that. It has all the features we need and want for convenience and safety. Pictured here in this very color is our van.

Secondly, Mothers Day was a huge success! I made a nice video for Kristie with pictures of her and the kids and wrote an original little something to go along with it. She really enjoyed it.


After that we headed to the beach and had a great day as a family. I love them and had a great weekend with them.

Blogging purpose

The purpose of this blog is to write not only about my life but to also reach people with the message in some way. God laid this on my heart when I first started this blog. Sure not every post reflects that but most do. I am upset that some people think its pointless but I know that there is a purpose for it and I will continue to do so.

Tu(n)esday . . . the wait is over

Ok so Im going to be lazy today with Tu(n)esday and pick a comical song. Im sure I may receive some negative feedback for this but Im just now geting to post at 9:30 or so. Its been a long day at the beach then some traveling and grilling out when we got home, kids baths me showering and so on and so on . . .

So, the comical song for this edition of Tu(n)esday is a song from the old HBO show called "Kids in the Hall". The song is titled "Daves I know". So check it out . . .



I know, its not the greatest comical song out there, but why should I go with the obvious Weird Al parody when you've probably never heard this song.

Next Tuesday will be a full featured post for Tu(n)esday. Lyrics, video, my thoughts on and how the song impacts me. Please dont let this post discourage you from checking out future posts.

Quick post - Headed to the Beach

I know, its Tuesday and Tu(n)esday post will come a little later in the day. We are packing up the kids and headed to the beach. Kind of a spur of the moment deal so I dont have alot of time for a long post right now. I am excited because it will be the first time I go surfing this year. Hopefully there are good waves.

Check back later today for the regularly scheduled Tu(n)esday post.
